I called Ralph Grienke of Stencils and Stripes
again today and this time he has GOOD NEWS! He is ready
to do a run of the complete Mirage stripe set! This
will include the red & blue stripes as well as all 3
black decals on rear spoiler and doors.
He will be
calling me back in a day or two with the price. How many
of you are as excited as I am?
I will post the
info here as soon as I hear from him.
(shaking with
enthusiasm),
Doyle

I talked to Ralph about a month ago about just
getting the hood/top/hatch stripes for my mirage. He

said he couldn't give me a price on a partial set yet,
but the full set would probably be $800 or

more.

Does anyone know if Ralph Grienke (Stencil & Stripes) ever reproduced
the Mirage decal set? I am planning on repainting mine next spring
and would like to go back to the decals if they are high quality.

The last time I spoke with Ralph he was still waiting on 10 people
to send in their 50% deposit ($450) for the $895 stripe kit before
he would manufacture any of the sets. I'm still too far away from
body work and spending too much money on parts to commit that much
cash at this time, but it's a definite must-have on my list as I
don't want to have painted-on stripes.

He also assured me and others that they would be made of the highest-
quality material that 3M currently offers and would be far superior
to what was applied originally by MAT.

Give him a call and get an update for us...he's a super nice guy and
will talk your ear off. You can get the number off the Stencils and
Stripes website if you don't already have it.

Hello.....I have two sets (actually my brothers) on the Monza Mirage Stickers
"Minus the red & blue strips). When we parted out my brothers Monza Mirage,
I sent them to Jim Osborn Reproductions. I sent the rear wing & Doors to him
to reproduce. I have not been able to get in touch with my brother, as I
work alot. I know that he wants to sell everything as a set. Set includes
the following:
1. Rear Wing
2. All four Fender Flares
3. Both Sets of Stickers

If interested please get in touch with me offlist, so we can cut down on list
traffic. I will be putting the stuff on Ebay, if nobody on the list wants it.

Thanks!! Wayne Grabley (Clifton, NJ)

I just got off the phone with Ralph (Stencils and Stripes) and he is
a super nice guy. He did remember the discussion on making a run of
the Mirage stripes but never heard back collectively from enough
people to move forward. He did say he is still very open to making a
run and is going to re-visit the plans he had in place and will
contact me in a few weeks to verify what he is capable and willing to
do.

Given that Ralph is looking for a committment of about 10 people our
opportunity is to determine if we have that number of interested
Mirage owners (not a huge group to start with) and then we can pool
our demand together to support getting this done. If we can find 10
Mirage owners then I would be willing to coordinate this with Ralph.
He did indicate again that the quality would be much better then our
OEM vinyl given the advances in technology and coatings.

Just to set expectations. The estimated cost from before was $895
(not cheap but I can understand the cost given the setup required and
the limited market opportunity) and Ralph would need to get a 50%
deposit upfront. He had communicated before that it would take 6-8
weeks to do the run. I will let you know when I hear back from him
if anything has changed.

Please let me know if you are interested and if you are what your
level of committment would be. We only need to find 9 more people
that are interested since I am willing to commit.

You can either reply back to this posting or send me an e-mail at
<a href="/group/hboamonzamirageclub/post?protectID=029028014009127031048038097207114164134058066051209171188199">mymirage77@y...</a>
